RE: Disabling "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Net- works" for an adapter in Win2k

You can use the INetCfg API to uninstall any network component including
File and Print Sharing programmatically. Following are the steps:

Call HrGetINetCfg to get a handle to INetCfg with fGetWriteLock set to TRUE;
Call HrUninstallNetComponent with szComponentId = “ms_server” to uninstall
F&P Sharing.
Call HrReleaseINetCfg with fHasWriteLock = TRUE to release the INetCfg
handle.

The INetCfg APIs only work with Unicode strings. So, if your program is in
ANSI then, convert ANSI strings to Unicode before passing to an INetCfg API.

In Windows 2000, how do I figure out how to programmatically disable “File
and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks” for a parituclar network adapter
(with a given connection name)?
